Mr.. james Neal. a young man
aged 20 years, Of Brookston, Forest
county, met with peculiar accident
on December 10Th which, for time
seemed likely to prove fatal. He had
been using large pocket knife and
in the act of closing the blade before
replacing it in bis pocket he pressed
the back of the point Of the blade
against his thigh to spring the clasp
to, when the sharp point penetrated
the flesh, infiicting a deep and painful
cash and seyering leader. The flow
of blood was very copious aud for a
time it vas feared that blood poison
ing would result. He is still suffering
great pain from the wQand which is
slow to heal. The unf0rtunate young
man is brother of Mrs John Ottino
of this place. = Clarion Democrat.
